While writing my favorable review of Screamer, I wanted to remind myself of Milestone’s original Screamer, released in 1995.
I was transported back to the days of classic arcade racers like Cruis’n World, California Speed, Daytona USA, Sega Rally, San Francisco Rush, Ridge Racer, and so many others. I literally felt this tingling in my brain, as if I was liberated from the harsh commercialization of the video game industry. I was reminded how simple games were—and thought about how unvarnished they should be in this trying landscape.
